PCB issue

Could I get some help in finding out what is wrong with my PCB? Recently assembled a plateless build with my PCB but am finding that 2 columns are not working. F6 F7 8 9 I O K M The problem keys are close together so I'm assuming there must be a common point of failure, but I'm not familiar enough with the subject to figure it out myself πŸ™‚ PCB: Galatea TKL F12/F13 Compatible PCB - Solderable Fr4

Do you have any way to check continuity? Here is a pic of the top with your problem highlighted so you can see the columns.

If you can check for continuity you should check between the points that should be connected with the column trace and try to find the break. If you find a broken trace you can try to repair the pcb or just use a small piece of wire and use it to connect the points with a jumper. Maybe between L and O?
